• Rupjmaizes kārtojums – A layered dessert made from rye bread)

• Vecrīga – Made from choux pastry filled with curd and vanilla cream and dusted with icing sugar.

• Black Balsam – Bitter but slightly sweet liqueur made in oak barrels. Most of the time you’ll see this liquor mixed into cocktails, or as a mixer with vodka, schnapps or akvavit. But people also drink Black Balsam with coffee, tea, cold soft drinks, and even use it as a topping for ice cream.

• Pelēkie Zirņi ar Speķi – Grey peas with rye bread. Veggie option is with onions and cheese sauce

• Pelmeni dumplings – Small dumpling similar to Chinese and polish filled with meat but veggie options are also available for our vegetarian Latina’s like myself.
